Bauer and Maryland win National Title, but....

In just his second year, Jack Bauer has taken the Terrapins to the BCS title game and left victorious. Maryland walked over #2 UCLA, winning 56-28.
Stefon Diggs (picture above) walks into the end zone. Junior running back Brandon Ross had over 300 yards rushing. Maryland had a special year going undefeated, winning Big 10 championship, and becoming the national champions.

It has been reported several schools called Bauer to try and get him to leave Maryland. After Georgia went 2-9 this year, Bauer was reported to be the top candidate for the job. However, Bauer's defensive coordinator (Brian Stewart) had contacted Georgia and stole the job from Bauer. Later in the week, news came out that Bauer turned down the South Carolina job because he was more interested in pursuing the job in Athens. Steve Spurrier has retired.

Then the unexpected, Rob Mullens called Bauer. Mullens, Oregon Ducks AD, offered Bauer the job. Bauer did not even have to think about it. He took it on the spot fearing someone else may try to steal his opportunity. The Ducks have had some great teams, but have fallen short lately. Mullens believes Bauer can bring his program to the next level and bring home the prestigious honor of being national champion.
